# How do I get started playing Axie Infinity?

There's a few things you'll need in order to start playing. Beyond a computer, the first thing you'll need is MetaMask, which is a virtual crypto wallet [which can be downloaded easily from their site.](https://metamask.io/) The 2nd thing you'll need is a Ronin wallet, which is similar to MetaMask and can be downloaded as a browser extension. While your Ronin wallet will be the primary wallet you use when playing the game, you'll also need a MetaMask wallet to connect to your Ronin (in case you ever want to "cash out" your items or ETH). Once you have these two things you'll be able to login to Axie Infinity, though it's recommended you create attach an email to your Axie Infinity account as well so you can sign-in more easily.

The last thing you'll need is 3 Axie, as Axie games are played with 3 Axie on each "side". You can buy these Axie from the Axie Infinity marketplace directly on <https://axieinfinity.com/>
